I’m a transfer student to UCSB currently majoring in communications. I have recently decided that I want to change majors to economics but understand this to be a pretty grueling major at UCSB. I’m willing to put in the work, but I would have to start from scratch essentially.

What I’m wondering is how hamstrung I would be starting Math 34A (calc for social science majors) having never taken pre-calc. I also want to know how much PSTAT-109 (statistics for economics) rests on introductory statistics. Any advice would be appreciated.
